Would you care to elaborate Tony? It sounds a little far-fetched.....
The subject of trees and golf courses has been raised within UKTC before. I
don't actually think Phil's problem was associated with golf balls, although
his second photo might have been. I was puzzling as to why the fairway of one
course was sprinkled with pieces of Sycamore bark, and then witnessed a golf
ball hitting a tree, which scattered bark like shrapnel! (IIRC the ISA
pamphlet recommends planting thick barked species like Wellingtonia.)
